2025 Acura Electrified Lineup Just Got Cooler
July 07 2025,
Acura is clearly turning up the heat in the EV world—and in 2025, its electrified roster is cooler than ever. From the trail‑ready ZDX Type S to the conceptual Performance EV, the brand is proving that electrification doesn’t mean sacrificing performance. But first, let’s start up north—and put our Eh stamp of approval on these stunning SUVs.

ZDX Type S: The Flagship Electrified Thrill Ride
Canada's first true all‑electric Acura, the ZDX, has been around since 2024. But the show‑stopper for 2025 is the ZDX Type S, packing 499 horsepower and 544 lb‑ft of torque from dual electric motors—making it the most powerful Acura SUV ever. It rockets from 0–60 mph in under 5 seconds. Built on GM’s Ultium platform (shared with Cadillac Lyriq and Chevy Blazer EV) and sporting adaptive air suspension, Brembo brakes, and 22‑inch wheels, it’s set up for precision handling and sporty flair. Plus, with fast DC charging at 190 kW, you can top it up quickly in just about 10 minutes.
The Standard ZDX: All‑Electric, all‑Canadian‑friendly
Do you want a bit less power, but still want to go electric? The A‑Spec variants give you options: a rear‑wheel‑drive single motor at 358 horsepower with a rival‑beating EPA range, or AWD A‑Spec with 490 horsepower and 304 miles of range.
On the Horizon: Acura Performance EV Concept
If the ZDX isn’t wild enough, Acura teased a futuristic Performance EV concept in 2024—part crossover, part sportback, part “angry sports boat”. Built on Honda’s next‑gen EV platform, it debuted at Monterey Car Week, hinting at both a production crossover in 2026 and a possible NSX‑inspired sports EV in 2027–28. It’s a sign Acura’s electrified future will expand far beyond utility vehicles.
Performance Spirit, Electrified
Acura’s Type S branding speaks volumes: this isn’t about softer rides or eco‑only motives. The electric ZDX Type S inherits that sporty DNA: Brembo brakes, adaptive suspension, torque vectoring—traits carry‑over from their combustion‑powered brothers like the MDX Type S and TLX Type S. The entire lineup now reflects Acura’s track‑inspired performance ethos.
